I'm trying to extract page numbers from scanned pages of text. Page Numbers are either at the top or at the bottom - sometimes with titles / authors / chapters. Occasionally elsewhere, but I don't care about the exceptions.
I've loaded tesseract 5.4 (windows) and run some tests using the executable. I'm finding that if the page number is a single digit on the line, tesseract ignores it (but otherwise does a fantastic job of OCR even with skewed and noisy images). I've isolated the single line used that as input and tesseract tells me 'the page is empty'. Here is a sample of a single line with a '1' in it resolution is 300dpi. [image: 101_bottom.jpg] Ultimately I would be writing a program using tesseract, but in the first instance I'd like to see it work with the exe. So, can I tell tesseract to be less fussy with individual characters and if not how would I do so programatically - if possible?
